AbstractThe superplastic forming (SPF) of titanium alloys is an established technology. A reduction in grain size from that of the typical sheet materials would lead to enhanced SPF properties and hence a reduction in production cycle times. This study describes the microstructural development and superplastic behaviour of fine-grained Ti-6%Al-4%V alloys. Ball-milling Ti-6%Al-4%V powder produces a nanocrystalline material; however on consolidation by hot isostatic pressing rapid grain growth occurs. Addition of boron powder during milling leads to boride precipitates in the matrix of the consolidated alloy. The precipitates are dispersed inhomogeneously, resulting in localized grain refinement. Superplastic testing revealed cavitation formation but in comparison to conventional sheet material, large elongations were achieved at relatively high strain rates.

The as-cast and hot worked microstructures of the newly developed β-solidifying ingot-metallurgy Ti-45Al-X (Nb,Mo,B) alloy and its superplastic properties in the hot worked condition have been studied. The obtained experimental findings were used for research of superplastic forming and diffusion bonding of sheet products, which were cut out of hot worked preform by spark cutting. It was shown that superplastic forming might be successfully applied to the obtained fine-grained sheet materials. Relatively low bonding temperatures and pressures were found to be sufficient to achieve sound joints in the sheet material.

Intermetallic Matrix Composites

Titanium-aluminum alloy metal matrix composites (MMC) and Ti-Al intermetallic matrix composites (IMC), reinforced with continuous SCS6 SiC fibers are leading candidates for high temperature aerospace applications such as the National Aerospace Plane (NASP). The nature of deformation at fiber / matrix interfaces is characterized in this ongoing research. One major concern is the mismatch in coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between the Ti-based matrix and the SiC fiber. This can lead to thermal stresses upon cooling down from the temperature incurred during hot isostatic pressing (HIP), which are sufficient to cause yielding in the matrix, and/or lead to fatigue from the thermal cycling that will be incurred during application, A second concern is the load transfer, from fiber to matrix, that is required if/when fiber fracture occurs. In both cases the stresses in the matrix are most severe at the interlace.

AbstractIn this study, oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic steels with nominal composition of Fe–14Cr–2W–0.35Y2O3 (14Cr non Zr-ODS) and Fe–14Cr–2W–0.3Zr–0.35Y2O3 (14Cr–Zr-ODS) were fabricated by mechanical alloying (MA) and hot isostatic pressing (HIP) technique to explore the impact of Zr addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 14Cr-ODS steels. Microstructure characterization revealed that Zr addition led to the formation of finer oxides, which was identified as Y4Zr3O12, with denser dispersion in the matrix. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of the non Zr-ODS steel is about 1201 MPa, but UTS of the Zr-ODS steel increases to1372 MPa, indicating the enhancement of mechanical properties by Zr addition.

Friction stir processing (FSP) is the effective method of the grain refinement for light metals. The aim of this study is to acquire the fine grained bulk Mg-Y-Zn alloy by ingot metallurgy route much lower in cost. Such bulk alloy can be formed by the superplastic forging. The microstructure of as-cast Mg-Y-Zn alloy was dendrite. The dendrite arm spacing was 72.5 [(m], and there are the lamellar structures in it. FSP was conducted on allover the plate of Mg-Y-Zn alloy for both surfaces by the rotational tool with FSW machine. The stirring passes were shifted half of the probe diameter every execution. The dendrite structures disappeared after FSP, but the lamellar structure could be observed by TEM. The matrix became recrystallized fine grain, and interdendritic second phase particles were dispersed in the grain boundaries. By using FSP, cast Mg-Y-Zn alloy could have fine-grained. This result compared to this material produced by equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) or rapid-solidified powder metallurgy (RS P/M). As the result, as-FSPed material has the higher hardness than materials produced by the other processes at the similar grain size.

The aim of the work. The effect of the curvature of the rounding of torus surfaces during the formation of a cylindrical product (glass) is investigated, taking into account the plastic thinning of the deformable material at the end edges of the matrix and pressing punch. Methods. The existing scheme for determining the power parameters of sheet drawing is analyzed, based on the assumption of the implementation of some abstract stress state in the material; mainly conditional tensile strength. At the same time, the possibility of forming the product without destruction determines the obvious overestimation of the stress level. A mathematical model of the volumetric stress state of the metal is being developed, which makes it possible to assess the deformation and stress state during the formation of a cold-drawn product, i. e. the folding of the sheet blank along the end radius of the rounding of the pressing punch and the steady-state process of drawing the blank into the deformation zone with successive bending/straightening of the material along the edge of the matrix are considered. The level of radial stresses during folding and stretching of sheet material is estimated, taking into account its strain hardening and thinning, which determine the forming force. The obtained results will make it possible to simulate the stress-strain state of the metal during the development of sheet drawing technology: to establish the amount of thinning, to estimate the level of radial stresses in the formation of rounding of torus surfaces along the end edges of the matrix and the pressing punch, as well as to determine the power parameters of the formation, which will prevent the destruction of the pulled part, guaranteeing obtaining high-quality products and more accurately choosing the deforming equipment.

Weld Parameters

Friction Stir Welding of Ti-6Al-4V was performed on 5 mm thickness plate in order to assess the affect of welding conditions on the resulting microstructure and superplastic forming behavior of the joints. A variety of welding conditions were tested and all welds were subsequently Superplastically formed. It was found that the weld parameters do influence the microstructure and degree of superplastic performance of the joints. Spindle speed was found to have the most dominant affect on the resulting microstructure and superplastic forming behavior. Low spindle speed welds lead to fine grained microstructures and highly superplastic welds, relative to the base material, while high spindle speed welds larger grained microstructures and less superplastic welds.

The Snyder breccia is composed of angular to subrounded xenoliths of migmatites and amphibolites in a very fine grained matrix. It is apparently intrusive into the metasediments of the Snyder Group exposed at Snyder Bay, Labrador. The Snyder Group unconformably overlies a migmatitic and amphibolitic basement complex and is intruded by the Kiglapait layered intrusion. K–Ar ages indicate that the basement complex is Archean in age (> 2600 m.y. old) and that the Kiglapait layered intrusion was emplaced prior to 1280 m.y. ago. Major and trace element analyses of the matrix of the Snyder breccia indicate that while it was originally of tonalitic composition, later it locally underwent alteration characterized by loss of sodium and strontium and gain of potassium, rubidium and barium. Rb–Sr isotopic analyses show that this alteration occurred about 1842 m.y. ago, most probably contemporaneously with emplacement of the breccia. The Snyder Group thus was deposited sometime between 2600 and 1842 m.y. ago and may be correlative with other Aphebian successions preserved on the North Atlantic Archean craton.
